Been watching Newswipe recently?

Drakengard falls pretty high on the 'unusually high-budget cutscene for a horrifically awful game' scale.

I'd also suggest Metal Wolf Chaos, but the opening pretty much parodies itself already.

I'm surprised they can even run that fancy GUI on all those fancy monitors. Look in the background at 3:52. Reel-to-reel tape drives.

Would I be correct in assuming that the sudden Ode to Joy interlude was the result of Paul 'fixing' the satellite radio/etch-a-sketch with perfect timing?

Since I couldn't find the 'pic of the day' email address...
I found this sign somewhere around the back of Reading University main campus:

The entrance turned out be be otherwise well-concealed.

Is cake manly? How about in vast* quantities. With similarly vast quanitites of icing.
Are diabetic comas manly too?

2. The Revver videos have stopped displaying the 'full screen' button. Does anyone know where the thread that deals with that problem is. Revver fail at updating their player for Flash 10. On an unrelated note: here's the Metal Gear Solid codec sound, pre-formatted for the iphone. For other phones,...

Other Revver hosted videos, and videos on the Revver site itself, do not have the fullscreen button. I'm running the latest flash 10 beta, so maybe that's causing it. Downgrading isn't really solution (9 had an unrelated video playback issue after a certain number of flash instances are started). Lo...

It's still there.

Not for me it isn't.

Sometime around when the site was updated, the fullscreen button disappeared from all the Revver-hosted videos. Is this something that can be put back, or has Revver decided that a few square inches (well, 84 cm^2 to be precise) of video is enough for everyone?

How do you magnetically accelerate a non-metallic rodent? It is technically possible. Hamsters, like other rodents, mammals, and most terrestrial organisms, are composed in the large part of water. Water is slightly diamagnetic ; that is, it rejects magnetic fields (a much weaker version of the eff...

Is it just me, or has the fullscreen button disappeared?

Pam ple mousse!

Oh hey, it's the Avro Arrow!

The biggest question is, with London nuked, why exactly did they go to the effort of making stamps with "LEEDS" written on them? Personally, I though that was a crowning moment of brilliance in the episode. I'm strongly tempted to procure/construct a [LEEDS] stamp, with which to label the...

Nice Flight of the Navigator reference. I really should watch that movie in it's entirety sometime.
